MOOREFIELD, w. VA, October 81
The Republicans Of this section are getting
on the ar-paint, preparatory to asserting
their rights in the next Republican State
Convention. They say this side of right, is
entitled to the candidate for Governor next
time, and having good man for the posi-
ton they mean to assert their rights. They
say the Democrats of this section showed
the boys, what can be done by people on
this side, when they have d mind to go IN
for their rights, and that they mean TO do
the same.
The man they are going to press for the
nomination for Governor is Hon. Geo. Har-
man, of Grant County. He is niaE OF
some intelligence and very great amount
OF prejudice, an everlasting natter
OF the Democratic party, one OF those men
who makes himself believe that the ed-
mInistration OF Cleveland is responsible for
the present low price Of beef cattle. Mr.
Iarman is part farmer and part preacher
and will, therefore, make il hot for any
| body who is the unfortunate nominee of
the wicked Democrats. The Republicans
Of this section have fully determined TO
present his name and press his claims on
| the next convention. II they can get hlm
nominated they will be content to let the
rest OF the ticket 80 anywhere. He will be
load for them 10 carry IN some localities
| m this section, however, AZ he Is
| 4 hOt-headed temperance man and
some of the faithful like little bug
Iiulce" or apple jack" occasionally. You
| are aware, ofccnrse, that Republicans don't
do much thai Is out OF the way,
OF morally wrong, Sct they do like "a little
snifter" now and then, ana consequently
when You come to putting provision 40
the ConstitGti ton of the State, saying You
,haIl not make the stuE in the State, there
are some of these good people who cent
see it in that way. These kind oil Rspuo-
liCans don't like Bro. Hartman. The South
| Branch Gazette, published at Petersburg,
/ the home of Mr.. Hartman, is gOiDg tn make
| a very vigoroUa and determined light for
him. Grant county, y3S know, Is the
home of Mr.. A. c. Scheer, ana 10 is y

out how Scheer stSpG5 with regard to the
aspirations Of Mr. Hartman, but Il ne goes

Democrats are all in favor Of Hartman

easily cleaned up. With hun as the Re-
